How To Get Off Suboxone (Page 20) (Top voted first)

Im Marina Im 24 years old and a mother of 2 beautiul little boys. From the years 2006-2007 i was heavily addicted to Oxy 80 and eventually started doing herion. I got help in sep.2007 at a methadone clinic, it worked for as long as i was on the methadone i had NO relapse's. In June 2009 i was completly off of the methadone that first day that i was on 0Mgs I went through extreme withdrawls i went through things that i would never wish upon my worst enemy! i stayed that way for a day and a half and decided to go to a suboxone doctor. He put me on 32 mgs a day which i thought was pretty high of a dose but he explained to me that methadone withdrawls was worst then any other withdrawls. so i trusted him. Now when i go to see him every month i pretty much beg for him to start the weining process and start lowering me and he pretty much refuses. After months of being on 32mgs a day he finally started tapering me down slowly, i never really thought any thing of it till now but i realized he's keeping me on the suboxne for as long as posible so that he can get my $200.00 a month. all he is, is a legal drug dealer bc now im highly addicted to the suboxone. I recently had to go a few days with out my suboxone bc i didnt have the money to see him and i went through hell. i thought methadone withdrawl was bad OMG there is no comparison. i wanted to either use which i havent done in years or rip my face off lol its funny now but it definatley wasnt funny a few days ago while i was feeling that way! So i spoke to a good friend whos going through the same thing and he told me that they just came out with a new pill to get you off suboxone. I just want to know if that's true. I tryed googleing it but i cant find any thing. If you have heard of this new pill please respond or if you even have a good way to get off soboxone as painless and posible... thanx

Hi there, I'm in need of help and advice so bad!!! I'm in a panic..I'm getting ready to move to Alabama nxt week.. I'm trying to get ahold of as many suboxones I can so I can get off this stuff for good... Once I move I won't be able to get any more subs.. I'm doing this by myself no doctor.. I've been on subs for 3 years.. With no doctor. I'm so done!!! Sick an tired of looking for subs so I don't get sick... I have 10 suboxone strips and 3 suboxone pills that I have gathered up.. I'm reading like crazy on everything I can do to get off of this stuff.. Can u plz tell me if that will be enough for me and my sister to tapper off? I'm buying this off friends and Can't afford it anymore plus I'm moving so I have no choice to get off... I'm so hoping for a new start!!! I can't wait to be normal!!!! I've been trying to find a pic of .025mg suboxone and can't find what it looks like.. I'm not sure at what I'm taking but it's not much.. An 8mg suboxone can last me about 3 or 4 days... I would like to show someone a pic of the amount I'm takin so someone can tell what I'm taking.. It seems like a little bit to me but I'm not sure... Plz someone help me thank u from the bottom of my heart

Bless u bless u!!!!! I'm suppose to head to Alabama no later then Saturday!!! Should already be there, but I hung around to see if I could get a few more subs! I'm so scared cuz this is it! Once I'm done there, that's all she wrote! I'm dunso! I can't believe I waited an extra couple of days just to make sure I could get ahold of some more subs.. I know have 30 sub strips all together and the few sub pills.... Hoping that will be enough for 2 ppl! Crossing fingers!!! I've never been so scared in my life!!! Thank u soooo for the tips, I deeply deeply I appreciate it!!!! I will definitely get the supplements!!! I'm absolutely overjoyed that someone really got back to me.... I really didn't know if that would happen!!!!!! I'm truly thankful!!!!! I can't thank u enough!!!!!!

Wow I had so many typos in that message I hope u can figure everything out what I was saying.... The other thing that I haven't disclosed is my husband does not know anything about me being on subs... So I won't be able to get a doctor down there.. It's all on me once I get down there.. I'm so ashamed I'm on subs, it would break his heart! I've been threw w/d from lorcets about 6 years ago and he was there every step of the way.. I only had 2 sub pills at that time to help with the w/d ... But I had no clue how to take the subs at that time at all!!! So I went thru hell! I stayed clean for over a year. Then I went out with a group of girls and someone had an oc I thought heck I haven't been on any for so long it wouldn't hurt me.. Anyway that one oc pill led to me being on them for about 4 months.. So I stopped playing around with the oc's or any other pain pill period... But I immediately grab some subs because I didn't want to be sick!!! But I keep taking them not thinking I would be addicted to subs, how stupid was that!!!! I just didn't want to be sick!!! But in the long run I was doing myself more harm and not knowing it!!!!! I am so upset at myself I'm disappointed,
I'm ashamed I'm disgusted... I'm just angry at myself!!! How could I let this happen again!!!! So yes this all has to be in secret in Alabama..... Once I get off of the subs that is it!!!!! I am done. Never again will I touch it!!!! The money that I have spent makes me sick I could have nice things!!!! So thank you again and again and again, for taking the time out to write me back!!!!!!! I'm in tears right now that u saw my post thank you

Hi slsmakingit,
Your not the first person to mention odors wnen coming off subs. I don,t know why there so strong at this time. It should start to go away as your wds go away.
Everyone is different. Each day you should start feeling better for a little longer that day. I don,t know if that makes sence.
Remember to move around. It helps the endorphines heal in your brain or some crap like that.
All I know is that it will make you feel better faster.
Believe it or not, one of these days this is all gonna be behind you.
It,s tough right now but your doing great!

Yes, I would be interested in how you sped up the detox process - getting off suboxone. I've been on it for more than 3 years now and believe it's leading to depression.

Jolter, I got injured at work and on workers comp. permanent disability. The dr. had me on morphine, vicodin and soma and then he decides he's not going to do that anymore. I had a couple nights that I thought I would die or wish that I would. I don't have ins. and it's so expensive here in Ohio. So I find them off the street and make them last as long as I can. Now I want off and working hard at it. It's hard cutting those strips, I'm a nervous wreck by nature and this whole thing isn't helping me any. You sound like a wise man and I sure wish I was in your place. But I'm praying that soon I'll be able to jump. I know I'll be a little uunomfortable some days but I want to and have to get away from this junk. Thanks for listening to my sad story, I live alone and have no one to help me so your post really helped me.
God bless you. (sorry about that uncomfortable word)
